inorite? Anyways, most impressive work keep it up :3 I am starting to learn this sort of thing with metal all though I am working more on armor than weapons. But I am eventually going to attempt to make Soul's scythe form as a prop.

Actually this isn't a Celt claymore. It's actually a woman's sword from this series. [link] It's pretty good.

*jaw drop* amazing!! i hadnt thought i would live to see (well, online) that sword in 1:1 scale... its so perfect~ i dont think i'll be able to make this prop for clare. XD
*touches the sword*

To be honest it's not totally perfect. I made it too big. The problem with anime swords is that they keep changing what they look like.
As for you making it the big surprise for me was it actually is easier than it looks. The hard part is figuring out how to do it.
